VIDEO: Teofimo Lopez Crashes George Kambosos’ Interview to Make an Absurd Claim

Boxing is full of surprises, but Teofimo Lopez losing his lightweight titles to George Kambosos Jr. wasn’t really a shock to several people. On looking at the first few rounds, it was clear that Kambosos Jr. had arrived to offer his best, and that exactly happened in the in-ring scrap. Although Lopez could offer heat from his end, it didn’t fetch him a successful title defense.

The Honduran-born boxer stood strong for all 12-rounds and had even knocked down his opponent. However, he suffered the same in return and lost the fight via split decision, contracting a defeat in his flawless professional record.

Post-fight, Lopez crashed into George Kambosos Jr’s interview and delivered his raw emotions. He was clearly unhappy with the result and bashed the judge’s decision in an open-mic condition.
